Nigerian Federation of Gymnastics (NFG)

Nigeria Gymnastics Federation

The Nigerian Federation of Gymnastics (NFG) also called Gymnastics Federation of Nigeria is the professional governing body that is saddled to control and handle the sports of gymnastics in Nigeria. The establishment of this association dates back to 1975 when the international federation of sports of gymnastics finally resolved to affiliate it.

The sole aim of this association is directly proportional to their mission which is to develop gymnastic in all angles across the country and beyond. It is headquartered at the federal capital territory Abuja, Nigeria.

The organization operates under Nigeria Olympic Committee in terms of legal decision making, administration and authority. Sometime in 2015, the federation was called upon to train orphanage kids across the country for Olympic gymnastics.

In September 2017, the federation conducted a two-day open national trial which was done to select Nigerian merited gymnasts who represented the country at the World Championship 2017 that took place in Spain
